Nan Nan followed the scent and entered the small kitchen of Shen Mu Tang. Food was indeed being cooked and eaten there, and it looked steaming.
Nannan's eyes shone brightly, she looked around, quickly ducked in, grabbed two pieces of pastry and immediately hid them in her clothes.
Strangely, there was no one in this small kitchen.
I don't know who lives in this place, but it doesn't matter who lives there. Anyway, this is his great-grandfather’s home. He just needs to talk to the housekeeper later. In this way, even if there is something missing in the kitchen, the housekeeper will not embarrass the servants. Well, he is still very polite and well-behaved. He will definitely not Take it for free.
While Nannan was thinking, she took out two oil paper bags from the bag she carried with her and put two large chicken drumsticks in them.
Well, daddy didn't eat breakfast either. He is a filial son, so I want to bring it to him.
With a small piece of bread in her mouth, Nan Nan immediately nodded with satisfaction and walked outside after taking a few items.
But he was thinking in his heart, why are there so many guards in this courtyard? Are they trying to protect some important person
But it's so strange. Even the unconscious great-grandfather's house is not guarded by so many people. It's a little unusual here.
Hmm... In the entire old mansion of the famous clan, the only masters are Grandpa, Uncle, Meng Ziqian, Meng Ziqi, and Mrs. Meng.
He was familiar with Grandpa's yard, and he also knew Uncle Ziqian's and Aunt Ziqi's yards, which were not in this area.
Could it be that this yard belongs to... uncle or Mrs. Meng
Nan Nan was very curious about the legendary Mrs. Meng. Uncle Zi Qian said that Mrs. Meng was a stoic. Many years ago, she lived alone in her own yard, ate food, prayed for Buddha, and rarely went out. On weekdays, her brothers and sisters did not go to greet her. I don't even want anyone to disturb me, and there are only one or two maids and women who serve me. They only appear in everyone's sight during the New Year and festivals.
However, it didn't last long. He showed his face for a moment and soon returned to his own yard, staying behind closed doors.
Nan Nan was very curious about this aunt and uncle. Meng Ziqian said that her aunt and uncle were very good-looking.
Nan Nan was thinking as she walked outside.
After just walking a few steps, I suddenly saw several angry voices coming from the distance, and something looked like it was being kicked over.
Nan Nan was startled, thinking that she was now covered in stolen goods, so it would not be good to walk out like that.
He looked around, then opened a door next to him and walked in.
The place he was in was a study room, which looked very clean and tidy. The collection of books was even richer than what Nan Nan had seen in the huge study room of Prince Xiu's Mansion.
There were footsteps outside the door. Nannan looked around, trying to find a place to hide, but found that the study was not very easy to hide.
The most important thing is that he has chicken legs on his body, which will emit fragrance. As long as people outside come in, they can smell it.
Nan Nan sighed and thought, why not go out and apologize seriously. He thought that if people saw that he was so smart and cute, they wouldn't blame him, right
Just as he was thinking about it, voices came from outside.
"It's simply ridiculous. This is a family matter in my family's family. What qualifications does Meng Lu have to take care of it?"
Nannan was shocked, this was his uncle.
He was about to die. Judging from his uncle's tone, he must have been angry at Grandpa Lu just now. He must be in a bad mood now. Not to mention that he went out to apologize, even if he committed suicide by caesarean section, his uncle might not forgive him.
What to do? What to do? What to do
Nannan's forehead was sweating.
"Master, don't be angry. That clan leader hasn't been like this for a day or two. He thinks he is so great, but he just takes the title of clan leader. If he didn't have this status, he would dare to come here. Minding your own business?"
Rusi's voice was soft, even if she was angry at the moment, her tone was always coquettish.
Meng Zhicheng glanced at her and narrowed his eyes, "So what if he is the clan leader? He sent people to surround the mansion before, which has already touched my bottom line. Now he wants to attack Zi Yao. Huh, really think of yourself. Can you be so powerful that you can reach the sky?"
"Master, what should we do now? If they don't let Zi Yao go, Zi Yao will be unjustly accused and die. He will definitely suffer a lot. The patriarch doesn't know what means he can use, so we, we..." Rusi choked up again as she spoke, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Nan Nan curled her lips when she heard this. He really hated such a woman. Fortunately, his mother was not the same. Apart from being a little shameless, my mother actually has many advantages.
"Don't worry, Zi Yao will be fine. As long as I'm here, even the clan leader can't do anything to Zi Yao. Don't worry." Meng Zhicheng took a deep breath and his expression became ferocious.
Nan Nan frowned when she heard that. My uncle's tone was so loud. With him here, wouldn't grandpa be able to make a difference with him
Grandpa Lu is the leader of the Mongolian tribe, just like the emperor's grandfather, he has great power.
He tilted his head and snorted secretly.
"Master, then you should calm down. I believe you, and I will definitely be able to rescue Ziyao." Rusi burst into tears, laughed a little, caressed Meng Zhicheng's chest, and said softly, " Breakfast is cooked in the kitchen. What would you like to eat? I will bring it to you. You have been busy all morning, so don't get tired."
"Well, feel free to use it and bring it to the study for me."
Nannan was stunned, study? After all, he still wanted to come in.
What to do
Nan Nan now regrets that he took the chicken legs and grilled fish before leaving. If he had not brought these fragrant foods with him, he would not have to worry about where to hide them now.
Damn it, the windows that could be opened in this study all faced the same direction as the door. It was impossible for him to jump out of the window.
Nannan scratched his head and scratched his ears anxiously, extremely nervous.
In the end, he just gritted his teeth and hid directly under the desk.
The footsteps at the door came a little closer. Nan Nan quickly held her breath and lowered her body a little.
However, his elbow seemed to have suddenly hit something, making it very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, there was a subtle clicking sound in his ears. Nannan was startled. When he lowered his head, he found that a gap gradually opened under his body. Slowly, a narrow staircase appeared in front of him.
Nannan's eyes were round and widened suddenly.
The study...is there a secret passage
There was a slight sound coming from the door, and Meng Zhicheng was about to open the door and come in.
Not allowing him to think too much, he could only close his eyes tightly and simply went down the stairs, carefully hiding his body.
The next moment, the sound of the study door being slowly opened came to my ears.
Nan Nan closed her eyes and let out a low sigh of relief.
